Summary
Join-in-Centenary is a year-long programme of month-by-month activities for all Members of Scouting. Every Leader will be sent with a specially prepared pack – one specific to each Section - in early September, helping them provide a busy and exciting year of activity for their Scouts.
The programme will take you on a journey that helps you and your Scouts explore adventure, international friendship, community and the environment among other themes. Join-in-Centenary is also totally interactive, allowing it to be adapted to suit local needs, local priorities and activities.
Idea/programme
Your Join-in-Centenary pack will contain a book, a year-planner wall chart and sticker sheet (except Network which will have its own additional resources). Providing ideas for your regular Section meetings, you should have enough good quality activities to bring young people into Scouting and to supplement your existing programme. Not every Member across the United Kingdom will be able to attend the 21st World Scout Jamboree so use this resource to bring the Jamboree experience to your weekly meeting.
Each month also contains information about the key dates and events that are happening during that month. You will find the dates of Centenary events that are being planned nationally and festivals that you may wish to link with your programme.
Aims and Objectives
The Join-in-Centenary programme aims to actively involve each member of Scouting in Scouting’s Centenary year. It is not just for those attending the 21st World Scout Jamboree in July and August 2007. Join-in-Centenary is for everyone.
Audience
Every member of Scouting in the UK, both adults and young people.
